My mom told me to do whatever I wanted to do and don't get too anxious about it.

The reluctant hero is always fun to play.

The director of the [Grimm] pilot called me in. I had worked on a pilot called Love Bites with him, and the producers I worked on with on Hot In Cleveland, so they knew me from comedic worlds, and they wanted someone who could be light too. Because it is pretty heavy.

I'm not doing a Mulder, there was no character reference-point. I think Mark Buchman shot it very David Fincher, but we did not know what the [X-Files] show was going to be.

One of my first gigs was as a guest star, and I was supposed to be a big imposing character.

Honestly, I grew up with Disney.

There's a lot of great stuff on TV.
